Editorial Review

Adobe Flex Builder 3 Professional software is a productive Eclipse based development tool for creating business-critical rich Internet applications that run in Adobe Flash Player or Adobe AIR, enabling intelligent coding, interactive step-through debugging, and visual layout and design of the user interface.

Content Assist displays code completion hints as you enter MXML, ActionScript, and CSS code.

In MXML Design mode, you interact with your Flex applications visually; dragging and dropping components on to the design area, selecting and resizing components, and so on.

To support a particular task or group of tasks, editors and supporting views are combined into a perspective. Flex Builder contains two perspectives: Flex Debugging and Flex Development. Flex Builder Professional contains an additional perspective, Flex Profiling.

When you create a project, Flex Builder switches into the Development perspective so you can begin developing your application

Top reasons to buy Adobe Flex Builder 3 Powerful coding tools: Take advantage of editors for MXML, ActionScript, and CSS; syntax coloring; statement completion; code collapse; interactive step-through debugging; and more. Rich visual layout: Visually design and preview user interface layout, appearance, and behavior using a rich library of built-in components. Create or extend those components easily if you need to. Interactive data visualization: Create data dashboards and interactive data analysis by simply dragging and dropping a chart type and linking it to a data source using the Flex Charting library. Skinning and styling: Customize the appearance of an application using CSS and graphical property editors to quickly set the most commonly used properties and preview the results in Design view. Integration with Creative Suite 3: Import ready-to-use creative assets directly into Flex quickly and easily with new Flex Skin Design extensions for Adobe Flash, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Fireworks software. Code refactoring: Find references to classes, variables, and methods, and rename them easily. Native support for Adobe AIR: Build desktop applications with the same skills and codebase as your RIAs with new desktop components and Adobe AIR development tools. Powerful testing tools: Use memory and performance profilers to investigate memory use and analyze where applications are using resources. Automated functional testing support, now included in Flex Builder Professional, enables regression testing. Advanced data services: Invoke web services or request XML data via HTTP using a rich, built-in library of data access services. Use open-source BlazeDS to easily connect applications to back-end services, leveraging Remoting and AMF, a binary, high-performance HTTP-based data transport. You can also add real-time data push and pub/sub messaging. Open-source framework: Beginning with Flex 3, the entire Flex framework is now available as an open-source project. Flex Remoting and Flex Messaging are also available as open source in BlazeDS.
